Does anyone know anything about this school.

A connection was living in this school on the 1881 census

Hi there,

I have had a quick look on a couple of sites. 
I found this on Virtual Mitchell about
St James Primary School http://www.mitchelllibrary.org/virtualmitchell/index.php?a=street&s=item&key=rYToxOntpOjA7czo4OiJHcmVlbiBTdCI7fQ==&pg=6
and a Green Street School
http://www.mitchelllibrary.org/virtualmitchell/index.php?a=street&s=item&key=rYToxOntpOjA7czo4OiJHcmVlbiBTdCI7fQ==&pg=7
and an Industrial School
http://www.mitchelllibrary.org/virtualmitchell/index.php?a=street&s=item&key=rYToxOntpOjA7czo4OiJHcmVlbiBTdCI7fQ==&pg=9

Unfortunately, none of them say what the number is!  So it may well be any of them

Cheers,
Clare

Hi again,

From further 'googling', St James Primary School appears to have been at number 88, so it doesn't look like that is the one.

Cheers,
Clare

Thanks to you both.

The industrial school in Green Street had children live in until 1894 when it became a day school.

With this information and my family member living in this seems to be the one.

Thanks again
